・Excerpt from the Fuji Takasago Sake Brewery official website
Our brewery is located just west of Fujinomiya Sengen Taisha Shrine, the head temple of all breweries in Japan. Our brewery is said to have been founded by Yamanaka Masayoshi of Hino-cho, Gamo-gun, Shiga Prefecture, around 1820 (Bunsei era), and we have heard that the brewery was built in its current location and sake brewing began in 1831 (Tenpo 2 ).
The brewery's unique features include a gentle, slightly sweet taste due to the quality of the Fuji water (soft water) used for brewing, and the taste brewed using techniques such as "Yamahai-ji" and "Saishikomi" by generations of "Noto Toji". The total production volume is about 2,500 koku (about 250,000 one-sho bottles ), with one-third of the main raw rice being Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, the rest being Miyamanishiki from northern Nagano, and Gohyakumangoku from Hokuriku. About 75 % of the sake, including Josen, is made under a specific name.
